If You're Buying It For a Smoker, READ!
ByM.D.Con May 7, 2017

I felt the need to write this review after having this air filter for some time. First of all, we did purchase this filter for a smoker in the household and yes, it does work to get that smokey smell out of the house when needed. However, like some reviews, I wanted to share our experience of how we keep this air filter running like new. You absolutely must clean the permanent filter ONCE a week if you are planning on using it specifically to get rid of the smoke from cigarettes. The entire filter will be covered in sticky residue from the smoke and this is what we learned from cleaning it now after about 6 months.
- Wear a mask and gloves when you clean the filter. I learned the hard way that the filter will smell like the cigarette smoke and if you're not a smoker, chances are you do not want to inhale those fumes. So wear a mask! And the same goes for the gloves. The residue is sticky and not only that, cigarettes are full of chemicals and carcinogens. Who wants that on their hands?
- This took some time to figure out, but the easiest and fastest way to clean the filter is by using Dish Soap. We use Dawn and it has worked wonders. I put a few drops of Dawn on to the filter and the smoke residue literally slides off. I also use a SOFT (this is important) tooth brush and gently scrub off the residue. Make sure the tooth brush is soft though, so it does not damage your filter.
- Lastly, just make sure the filter is completely dry before placing back in.
And that's it! It is literally that simple. This has been keeping our filter running like new and we are very satisfied customers! So, if you live with a smoker and are hesitant to buy this due to other reviews, I am telling you right now it DOES work, but you have to be willing to take 15 minutes or so once a week to clean the filter in order for it to purify your air properly!

5.0 out of 5 starsBEST air cleaner for removing SMOKE odors!
ByAmazon Customeron February 19, 2016
Verified Purchase
When considering the purchase of an HQ air purifier, please consider what you wish to accomplish before making your purchase. I have spent as much as $400 for a giant HEPA/charcoal air purifier that is great for dealing with dust, pet hair, and so on, but it faired poorly in trying to remove smoke odors. Simply put, smoke particles can be as small as .01 microns and it does no good to use an air cleaner that can only clean down to .3 microns (or larger). The only effective (reasonably-priced) alternative solution are these Ionic type air cleaners that are not only able to collect such small particles but also produces fresh, clean-smelling air that further reduces the smoky odors. While these types of air cleaners are not capable of filtering a large volume of air (like the larger HEPA filters - especially the really big ones), this unit has a small two-speed fan that does improve the air flow compared to units that do not. Lastly, this unit will definitely save you money over time because you are able to clean the collector plates instead of replacing the various filters (some can be as much as this unit and require replacement every 6 - 12 months). So again, please think of what you are trying to accomplish before making your investment. :)

I have this on my nightstand and its great as a nightlight and soft ambient noise. Im also a smoker and people are amazed that i smoke indoors because they cannot smell it. I had to have this shipped to my mom and then she fwded it to me because it wouldnt ship to California but totally worth it.

Have only had it for a week and seems to be working fine. Had a lot of dust on it this morning when I cleaned it. I use it in my walk in closet to keep the clothes smelling fresh and I replaced the plug in one I bought a few months ago with it. The plug in was a total waste of $.

2.0 out of 5 starsAs much as I like the idea of this product
ByDonald Coxon April 12, 2017

As much as I like the idea of this product, the airflow is very minimal. Even in my small bathroom it makes little difference in the air even with the door shut for hours. I bet it would work a little better with a higher CFM fan, but right now, it is little more than a night light.

5.0 out of 5 starsEmergency Purchase Worked Out Well
ByGregon August 18, 2014
Verified Purchase
Moved into a temporary rental while building a house. Rental smelled of mildew. Purchased the B-1000 to placate the wife in hopes that it would eliminate the odor. It worked admirably. The problem turned out to be much worse. Long story short, we lived through a kitchen remodel to correct a chronic leak and remove mold and mildew. Now that the kitchen is back together and odor free, moving the B-1000 to the kid's bedroom, which smells faintly of cat pee. The night light functionality and the slight fan noise should work out well. I'm confident the B-1000 will take care of the odor. Very happy with the purchase.

2.0 out of 5 starsGreat product if you just have money to throw on things. Otherwise seems pretty useless.
ByKevin Chenon October 29, 2017
Verified This thing puts out very little Ion. I have a smaller unit (1/3 this size), by other maker, that runs circles around this unit . Plus, I also have the "Cadillac" of Ionic purifying, Green Air, albeit very expensive, but you get what you pay for! This door-stop is now in the Goodwill box. Another lesson learned.

Great price, great service and it did the job in three days. I took reviewer advice and bought two - one for the living area and one for the master bedroom and bath. Within one day I woke up with less allergy mucus and within three days I woke up with no allergy mucus. I wish I had gone this route years ago!

This item arrived and was smaller than O expected. I also had high expectations apparently because after a few days plugged in there was much dust in it. Odd because I have 5 dogs and 4 cats.

Bought this for my bathroom. Husband smokes in the bathroom when grandkids are at our house and it's too cold to go outside. This little machine seems to work very well. My only issue is it takes a bit of time to clear the room of smoke.

3.0 out of 5 starsHigh Pitched Buzz - not for those with rabbit-like hearing
ByCollegeDormLifeon November 6, 2015
Verified Purchase
I so wanted to love this unit. It promises to deliver so many fancy features for such a reasonable price! However, while I think it works quite well at filtering the air, there is a very faint buzzing noise emitted that is not soothing, and sounds like a bee lost in my bedroom. It actually reminds me a lot of the "bumble-bee" ringtones people had in high-school. Super high-pitch ring tones that could only be heard by someone in their teens and twenties, so you would know you received a text without the teacher also finding out. Listening to that once in a classroom was annoying. Listening to it all night in my bedroom is stressful. It's not soothing "white noise." However, it's not loud at all, and some people may not even notice it. I like the air filtering aspect, and I will probably end up moving this unit to my living room where the slight buzz is drowned out by the A/C

5.0 out of 5 starsHELLO to open windows during Spring!
ByJulia Hassetton February 22, 2015
Verified Purchase
Was surprised at how small it was when it arrived but it does a good job. After running a few days, we cleaned it because I wanted to see how easy it was. Directions included were easy to follow (KEEP THEM AND FOLLOW THEM!). The night light feature I see as a way to know where it is and not trip over it. It may work as a night light in a child's room but we have it in a main room.
We clean ours once a week and are amazed each week at how much is collected.
An absolute FAVORITE of ours and a MUST when I was shopping was the fact that we are not buying filters, or other replaceable things on a monthly basis, as they get very expensive. I can tell this is working without those and without the $300 upfront price tag as it became unplugged by the 200 lb constantly shedding Malamute one day for a few hours. My son and I were sneezing and rubbing our eyes. My assumption was that it must be time for a cleaning, which was odd because it seems to keep working even if I forget for 3 weeks. But alas, when I went to do it, a simple plugging in fixed us both in under an hour.
